  2. Situs inversus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situs_inversus

    The lung anatomy is reversed and the left lung has three lobes while the right lung has two lobes. The intestines and other internal structures are also reversed from the normal, and the blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatics are also transposed. If the heart is swapped to the right side of the thorax, it is known as "situs inversus with ...

  3. Reverse-flow cylinder head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse-flow_cylinder_head

    The reverse flow design is generally considered [according to whom?] to be inferior to a crossflow design in terms of ultimate engineering potential for two reasons. Firstly, there is limited space when inlet and exhaust ports are arranged in a line on one side of the head meaning a reduction in port area compared to a crossflow head.

  4. Ovarian vein syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovarian_vein_syndrome

    Pressure from the baby might hinder the return of blood through the ovarian vein. However, dilation of the urinary tract is a normal observation in pregnancy, due to mechanical compression and the hormonal action of progesterone. Ovarian vein dilatation might also follow venous thrombosis (clotting inside the vein). [citation needed]

  5. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    [4] [5] [6] A generalized model of the flow distribution in channel networks of planar fuel cells. [6] Similar to Ohm's law, the pressure drop is assumed to be proportional to the flow rates. The relationship of pressure drop, flow rate and flow resistance is described as Q 2 = ∆P/R. f = 64/Re for laminar flow where Re is the Reynolds number.

  6. List of fictional characters with situs inversus - Wikipedia

    In Doppelgänger (also known as Journey to the Far Side of the Sun), astronauts from Earth land on a parallel planet on the other side of the Sun where everything is a mirror image of what it is on Earth. When one of the astronauts dies, x-rays from his post-mortem exam reveal that his internal organs are located on the wrong side of his body.

  7. Eddy (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_(fluid_dynamics)

    This can occur around cylinders and spheres, for any fluid, cylinder size and fluid speed, provided that the flow has a Reynolds number in the range ~40 to ~1000. [1] In fluid dynamics, an eddy is the swirling of a fluid and the reverse current created when the fluid is in a turbulent flow regime. [2]

  8. Tesla valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_valve

    The flow resistance is defined, analogously to Ohm's law for electrical resistance, [2] as the ratio of applied pressure drop and resulting flow rate: R = Δ p Q {\displaystyle R={\frac {\Delta p}{Q}}} where Δ p {\displaystyle \Delta p} is the applied pressure difference between two ends of the conduit, and Q {\displaystyle Q} the flow rate.

  9. Subclavian steal syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subclavian_steal_syndrome

    The proximal part of left subclavian is blocked (shaded artery). This prevents antegrade ("forward") flow to the left arm and left vertebral. As a result, flow in the left vertebral is retrograde ("backwards") towards the left arm. Flow to the brain and circle of Willis is via antegrade right and left carotid and right vertebral arteries.
